Hexcon is a game convention which is held annually in Trondheim, Norway in the beginning of November. This year, the convention takes place 12th-14th November.
Hexcon is Norway's oldest game convention. In 2004 it celebrates its 20th anniversary!
The convention is held by Hexagon, gamers club (site is in Norwegian only). The club has meetings every Monday in Trondheim city center. (Here's a map.) Both Hexagon and Hexcon are open for everybody of age 14 or older.
Most Norwegian gamers speak English well, so you shouldn't have any problems participating even if you speak no Norwegian.
Each year's Hexcon has a theme, which inspires decor, costumes, and to some extent the selection of games. This year, we've chosen 7th Sea from Alderac Enterntainment Group as our theme. AEG has kindly let us use some of their graphics, as you can see from our web pages.
The programme is here. It's in Norwegian, but most of the game titles are in English. Brief glossary:
In addition to the games, there will be a banquet, and a LARP: "Giovanni Villanova's Great Ball" (7th Sea).
If you want more information, please contact the Hexcon committee at hexcon@hexcon.no.
Most of the results will be in Norwegian.
